evdubs / oic-options-chains Goto Github PK

Hi evdubs,
Just noticed some symbols that are in the nasdaq list on the DB are not having the OIC data pulled from options quotes website. for example if i run in pgAdmin:

select act_symbol, security_name, listing_exchange
from nasdaq.symbol
where act_symbol = 'BYND'; ````

i get back in the correct info for BYND ticker, i.e. its in the nasdaq list. however when i run OIC i do not get under the options-chains/date directory the BYND.html options page. However there is in fact a page and data if i check the website manually

is there any way to probe via racket to get a full list of what ```racket extract.rkt``` sees and should pull data for? i may attempt to write a small program that does this.. unless you have a better idea?

Thankyou. 

I first downloaded the .Zip and opened the extract.rkt file and got all the required packages running beforehand. I then set up a new DB in my PSQL in localhost. It says the user is "postgres", I named the db "Chains" and had a simple password. This is how my code looked (this is the only section I actually wrote in, since I'm assuming it's the only input it required from my part):

(define dbc (postgresql-connect #:user ("postgres") #:database ("Chains") #:password ("XXXX")))

this returns the following error:

application: not a procedure;
expected a procedure that can be applied to arguments
given: "postgres"
arguments...: [none]

Is my username wrong? Did I have to set something else up before this? I'm sorry for the very nooby questions, I work mainly on modeling through R and Python. Any possible pointers on how to fix this are greatly appreciated!
